I'm so disappointed in "One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This." After getting halfway through, I have to give up on what feels like a self-indulgent and exploitative way to use the genocide in Palestine to market what is, at its core, a personal memoir. I absolutely agree with the points Omar El Akkad makes – Western media and Liberalism have actively tried to erase Palestine and eradicate its citizens while hiding behind a virtuous facade. Language is a tool deliberately weaponiz...
